After the program in Mc Ewen the inductees, relatives and other invited guests at tended a reception at the home of President and Mrs. Fred Young. “This is the largest number of jjersons ever to witness an Alpha Chi induction at Elon. This is largely because the ceremony was scheduled to coincide with Parents Weekend, as was the case last year,” Dr. Blake said. “This gives parents a chance to share in a high moment in their son’s or daughter’s col lege life, and I want to continue this tradition. Presi dent and Mrs. Young have been most gracious in honor ing these fine students with a reception in their home,” Dr. Blake said. Inside Parents Weekend review 3 Editorials 2 Entertainment....

Senate recalls visitation bill by Robin Adams The Senate voted Monday night in a special called meet ing to retract bill 77-10.1, the visitation bill, until next spring. Jim Stevenson proposed that the Senate wait until the spring meeting of the board of trustees to present the bill. Robin Moser suggested they “present a proposal to the Campus Life Committee first and lobby for it effectively.” Robin said the Campus Life Committee was more open than the trustees. She also assured the Senate that by not presenting the bill, she was not being passive, but planning to prepare a more detailed statistical report for the trustees. “Since the bill had been introduced three times and filed by the trustees three times, a more educated approach would be more ef fective,” says Robin. The proposed bill 77-10.1, the visitation bill, asks only for week-end visitation with the same open-door policy. The bill also notices that Sf.’ith and Carolina are unfit for female visitors and need to be upgraded. Further business consisted of a proposal by Jim Stev enson to strengthen dorm governments. This proposal passed unanimously and was presented to the Campus Life Committee Wednesday. New freshmen officers were sworn in and the Communi cations Media Board Consti tution was presented to the Senate. It will be reviewed during the regular Senate meeting today. BCS seeks an adviser Newly elected Alpha Chi PresldenI Ronald Crotts is seen here Friday night. Dr. Robert Blake, left, was in charge of induction at induction ceremonies last by Robin Adams “A lack of faculty in an administrative position to as sist blacks in counseling ses sions is the major goal or concern of Elon’s Black Cul tural Society,” says Vivian Miller, BCS president. Ms. Miller is also con cerned because BCS doesn’t have a faculty adviser. She says William Sharpe offered his services to BCS whenever they are needed, but she felt that Mr. Sharpe has enough administrative duties as co ordinator of student activities. The purpose of BCS is to promote unity among black students and to help them deal with campus life. In order to fill these specifics she feels there should be more in terrelationship among schools in the area. BCS has contacted A&T University, Winston-Salem State, N.C. Central and the University of Maryland. By determining what works and does not work for them, Vivian feels she can better plan for Elon students. BCS’s officers for the 1978- 79 year are Vivian Miller, president; Frances Murrell, vice president; Elizabeth By num, secretary; and Bryant Colson, treasurer. The Black Cultural Society meets every Thursday at 7:30 in the Listening Room of Long Cont. on page 3
